When Mr. Yan said this, he looked towards the southeast direction of Liangcheng, "I heard that you recently organized a trade association?"

"Yes." Mr. Liu clasped his fists, looked at the teacher again, and suddenly smiled and said: "Although the teacher is retired, he has a wide network of contacts. It is difficult to hide any troubles in the city from the teacher."

Master Yan didn't listen to Master Liu's pursuit, "I know, it would be helpful to advise you more, but I can only say...be careful when proceeding.

If something happens along the way, just ask the prefect, he still values ​​you very much."

"Yes!" Mr. Liu solemnly clasped his fists.

Mr. Yan waved his hand to indicate that the business was finished.

Then, he smiled and asked: "How long are you going to stay here with me?"

"The affairs have been arranged." After seeing the teacher's smile, Mr. Liu relaxed and sat on the chair, "I am going to go back after the new year."

"That's a coincidence." Mr. Yan put down the half-empty tea cup, "At the end of this summer, I met an old servant who retired from the Ministry of Household Affairs.

He went fishing by the river today, and his housekeeper said he would be back at night.

In this case, you go to the city to buy some fishing gear, then have a good rest, and we will go fishing with him early tomorrow morning."

Master Yan said and touched his sleeve pocket, "I have some silver here, you can use it first."

"No way!" Mr. Liu hurried forward, pretending to stop the teacher from giving him money, and poured the tea on his hands. "Teacher, don't worry, although the student didn't bring any luggage this time, he did bring enough banknotes."<

/p>

Mr. Liu said, in order to reassure the teacher and make the teacher believe it, he also took out a stack of banknotes from his arms.

Each one has a denomination of fifty taels. Based on this thickness, the total amount is at least nine hundred taels.

When Mr. Yan saw that Mr. Liu had money, he paused and nodded, but did not ask where the money came from.

After all, he has been in the Jin Caoling position for decades, and he still understands the twists and turns here.

But for these large amounts of banknotes, Mr. Yan may be old, so he inevitably warned Mr. Liu to be careful and not to show them to others, including the prefect who valued him.

And as time goes by.

During the fishing trip the next day, everyone in the group had a great time fishing.

So much so.

This year’s New Year’s Eve.

Under the guidance of his teacher, Mr. Liu spent time at the house of the minister who was also childless.

And with the help of Mr. Liu, I got drunk and celebrated the New Year.

Like a joke, but not like a joke, Mr. Liu bowed three times and recognized the old minister of the Ministry of Finance as his adoptive father.

As the relationship deepened, New Year's Eve became more lively, like a family dinner.

And it’s not just Mr. Liu.

During the Chinese New Year, every city is bustling with excitement.

There are lanterns and colorful decorations all over the place, and the sound of breaking bamboo is constant.

But precisely in the days between the second and fifth day of the Lunar New Year, a major event that shocked the world happened on the boundary of Pingcheng and the adjacent Liangcheng!

That was the head of the Xinghe Sect, a veteran martial arts master who had achieved great success the day after tomorrow. He was attacked and killed on the second day of junior high school.

Not only him, but also an acquired master, the chief rudder of the Jiang faction in Pingcheng Town, was also beheaded one day later.

In addition to these two people, a wealthy businessman on the border of Liangcheng was also killed by a young masked man at a banquet for guests on the fifth day of the lunar month.

After killing this person, the masked man called himself "Nanguan" and left in a hurry.

No one at the banquet dared to stop him.

It was also the banquet battle that followed the death of the wealthy businessman.

Through the fight between the two, the living people also know that this wealthy businessman is actually an acquired master.

Listening to the words of the young swordsman and the initial confrontation with the wealthy businessman, people in the world also knew that this wealthy businessman seemed to be a copycat leader more than ten years ago.

The news that the three masters died one after another spread throughout the counties in Pingcheng after half a month.

There are rumors in the world that the swordsman calls himself ‘Nanguan’.

And there are many capable people, many seniors in the world, who have also found out some past events based on this name.

Finally, we learned that this young swordsman was the descendant of the former Nanguan hero.

This time it is to avenge my father.

Especially in terms of martial arts, he is even better than his predecessors, and he has a kind of invincibility in the realm of acquired achievements.

But the people killed are always old people in the world.

This has made many martial arts masters who consider themselves to be highly skilled in martial arts eager to give it a try. They want to meet this Nanguan young hero for a while and take a look at this acquired talent who is only twenty-three or four years old.

Similarly, such a bloody thing, involving dozens of lives during the Chinese New Year.

Even if it is a dispute between Jianghu and Jianghu, it is only natural to avenge his father.

When the prefect of Pingcheng learned about this, he still sent out many detectives to find the whereabouts of Nanguan Shaoxia.

But the more important thing is to maintain the stability of Pingcheng and keep an eye on the masters who heard the news and came to compete.

He doesn't want his peaceful Pingcheng to become a chaotic military city like Dayang City.

But after searching for more than half a month, until spring was about to begin in early February, there was still no news about Nanguan Shaoxia, and even the place where he had hidden could not be found.

This was actually Nanguan Shaoxia who deliberately concealed his actions, and he hid it deeply enough before, so that everyone was in vain.

Similarly, when his revenge was avenged, Nanguan Shaoxia did not continue to stay in the Escort Bureau. Instead, he left farewell letters and several excellent secret books in the martial arts and Escort Bureau respectively.

These secret books were once in the collection of his Nanguan family, and they were found during this revenge.

The rest of the secret books have long since disappeared, perhaps sold by these people.

As for the more miraculous secret book, "Kaiyun Sword Technique", it was passed down from an immortal. He didn't dare to make the decision privately, otherwise he would have to repay the favor.

When Wu Xing and the chief bodyguard received the letter, they roughly guessed that the now-famous Nanguan Shaoxia was actually the kind-hearted Mr. Zhao.

After they saw this and learned the truth of the matter, they burned the letter and didn't say anything more. They just let out a long sigh, knowing that Nanguan Young Hero was doing it for their own good and didn't want them to be involved in this escalating incident.

Fierce battles between rivers and lakes.

But what they don't know is.

In a small courtyard not far from the martial arts and escort agencies.

Nanguan Shaoxia had been hiding here for a whole month. When he saw that the excitement had passed and no one suspected the escort agency and Wu Xing, he really left Pingcheng.

After all, since no one is suspicious, if you stay any longer, it will add suspicion to Wu Xing and the escort agency.

Waiting for Kaiping City.

Nanguan Shaoxia, who was wearing a bamboo hat and a coat, came to the forest where the fairy taught him the magic, and wanted to see if he could meet the fairy.

Now that he has taken his revenge, he really doesn’t know what else to do.

Perhaps if the demon fairy was not around, he might live in seclusion near Pingcheng and secretly guard the escort agency and martial arts all his life.

I came to Lin Nei with these thoughts.

The snow in the forest has melted a little, revealing the place where I once stayed.

After revisiting the old place, maybe it’s because today’s realm is different and it’s a matter of time after tomorrow.

With keen perception, he discovered a leaf that was still green on the ground.

There is no rot or yellowing.

He subconsciously picked it up and used his inner strength to examine it, only to see a somewhat illusory figure emerging from the leaves, which seemed to be the demon fairy.

The demon fairy seemed to have left only an afterimage, and after being stimulated by internal force, a voice emerged in Nanguan Shaoxia's mind.

‘If you improve your realm again and visit your old place again, you should be able to find this leaf.

If you find it, you have found it. If you miss it, you have missed it.

And I have been waiting for you for a hundred days. If you want to return it, you can take this leaf and go to Wujiang City to find the eldest son, and you can also go to the riverside to watch for a hundred days for me.

He didn't say at that time that he couldn't find someone to replace him.

As for your monthly salary, you can just take it yourself.’

As soon as the words fell, the voices in my mind disappeared, and the illusory images on the leaves also disappeared.

‘Wujiang Mansion? Eldest Young Master?’

Nanguan Shaoxia recalled what he said just now. Although he didn't understand who this eldest young master was, he thought that he, a commoner, had been favored by immortality.

Presumably, the eldest son is the young master of a wealthy family, or the son of the prefect.

And this eldest son likes to practice by the river, so he needs to be protected by himself?

Nanguan Shaoxia was thinking and didn't care about the rewards.

He only felt that now that the great revenge had been avenged, all that was left was to repay the favor.
To be continued...
